Three Pinxton teacups, coffee cups and saucer, circa 1800
One trio with pattern 367 of red ground panels between blue bands with gold paterae, another with pattern 342 with bright Japan style plants between red trellis, the third of fluted shape with a border of pearls, gilt festoons and cornflower sprigs, saucers 14.2cm diam (9)

Trio of pattern 367-the teacup is in good condition. The coffee can has some wear to the gilded rim and some light crazing to the foot. The saucer has a few small patches of wear to the gilding on the central circular line and to the band of leaves on the inside edge of the border.
Trio of pattern 342-there is wear to the gilding around the rim and foot of the teacup and some tiny patches of wear on the handle and to a few of the gilded leaves within the panels. Most of the gilding on the rim and around the foot of the coffee can has worn away and there is some wear to the handle and to some of the leaves within the panels. The saucer has wear to the gilded rim and wear to the gilding and enamels in the centre, mostly resulting from stacking.
Last-mentioned trio-the teacup is crazed and there is slight wear to the gilding on the rim and loss to a small section of gilding on the border. The coffee can has loss to the gilding on about one third of the circumference of the rim and a few further minute patches on the rim. The saucer has some wear to the gilding on the rim and to the inner ring of gilding in the centre.
